Hero Setup
Begin the game with The Shoot card set to the side of your Hero Board, active side face up.
Hero Board
- Complexity: shown as a five-dice scale on the leaflet, graded from low to high. The third die is highlighted.
- Weapons of choice: You know, katanas, pistols, bazookas, grenades, sai, knives, and a winning smile.
Attack Dice Faces
The Hero Board shows what each die face does for this hero:
| Die face | Symbol |
|---|---|
| 1 | PEW |
| 2 | PEW |
| 3 | PEW |
| 4 | KNIFE |
| 5 | JOKE |
| 6 | MASK |
Status Effects
Donut
Positive Status Effect. Stack limit: 2.
When gaining this token, you may choose to give it to any player.
A player with this token may spend it during their Upkeep Phase, and roll 1 die:
Gain ½ the value as health (rounded up).
Onomatopoeia
Unique Status Effect. Stack limit: 2.
During any Roll Phase, you may spend this token to change one of your dice to a Knife face or a Joke face, but only if you say a cool or funny onomatopoeia while doing so. This token may not be transferred by any means (but can be removed).
RPS
Positive Status Effect. Stack limit: 1.
Rock, Paper, Scissors for fun and benefits:
A player with this token may spend it when Attacking or when being Attacked. Once spent, choose an opponent to play Rock, Paper, Scissors against. If you win, gain the benefit listed below. If you tie, play again.
- While being Attacked: Prevent 2 incoming dmg.
- While Attacking: Add 2 dmg. If your Shoot card is Active, add 3 dmg instead. If spent during your Ultimate Ability, you automatically win RPS. This counts as an Attack Modifier.
Can only spend once per turn.
Rules Clarifications
- Joke: The order in which you play the two cards "He Who Smelt It..." and "...Dealt It" doesn't matter, but it is always less funny when you have to explain the joke.
- RPS: If you are playing against a non-human (i.e. in one of our insanely fun cooperative expansions), shuffle the 3 RPS cards and just randomly draw one to represent your opponent's choice. Or have your neighbor play a game with you.
- You cannot use RPS with pure DMG. Pure DMG is just that, pure. Like a tall glass of sweet tea after a long day of beating up bad guys. Pure and refreshing. Ahhhh...
- If someone steals your RPS token and you lose, you may still use your Shoot card to win that round. I mean, they knew you still had that card active when they transferred it, right? So it's kind of their own fault. How embarrassing. Pew pew.
- If you use your Shoot card when spending an RPS, the Shoot card is no longer Active and you would just add 2 dmg to your attack instead of 3 dmg.
- If you lose RPS, nothing happens. Duh.
- Ultimate Ability: Yes, I can gain any positive status effect from a player in this game. But no, not ones that say "Unique Status Effect". Why would I want another Onomatopoeia? Be smarter than Wolverine.
- Curmudgeon Coin: If you are a curmudgeon, place this coin face up on your Hero Board to receive all of Deadpool's bonuses without saying the required words or sounds effects.
